Good evening all,
was told that the trainee area would be a good area for me to go in and I've messaged Admin a couple of days back but haven't heard anything back yet.
Just wondered if anyone else would be able to help on this
And also If I could post a little bit I got stuck on in my work (again) lol :
Identify the tests that would be carried out to locate each of the following faults, as reported by the client.
a) A circuit breaker keeps tripping, as soon as it is reset, which is protecting a socket-outlet circuit.
b) RCD on the outside lighting circuit trips frequently, even though the outside lights are not in operation.
c) Main protective bonding conductor is damaged near to the ’Stopcock’. The conductor is partly concealed in the fabric of the building.
For a) Got a bit stuck on- you can't do RCD test on a) can you as is not RCD ... (apologies if this is a stupid question) would I need to do any test from the socket oulet?
for b) am I right in thinking An RCD test could be performed to test if the RCD is too sensitive?
and c) would be continuity of main protective bonding test wouldn't it ..
Any help would be appreciated , sorry for the long post guys.
Many thanks
